SETTLEMENT: There were no problems, unpleasant situations and misunderstandings. We got from the airport to the hotel in 20-30 minutes. Immediately gave a large corner room with a large loggia and an average balcony. The room is quite pleasant, panoramic sliding glass shutters, huge beds and bamboo imitation in furniture elements. The view from the balconies overlooked a beautiful quiet courtyard with fountains and gazebos.
SERVICE: The service and attitude of the staff was really good and quality. Every day they cleaned the room and left a bottle of clean water. The employees are polite, cultured, they know English and a little Russian.
TERRITORY: The hotel has two pools, but since it was already November, the water was cold in them, and the heating had not yet been turned on. The territory is beautiful, cozy and well-groomed. The hotel itself is normal.

FOOD: Excellent. Great variety of everything! There is always food! There is breakfast, lunch, dinner and a lot of intermediate snacks in between like pizza, french fries, buns, cakes. There are no shrimp, crabs, lobsters and other frills. Drinks are always available at the pool bar and at the two bars in the hotel for free. But the drinks are there anyway! Beautiful well-known and delicious cocktails will not be made here. They can only splash alcohol and some other garbage into soda. That's the whole cocktail. Of the alcohol there, only beer is normal, because it is purchased in bottles.
BEACH: The entrance to the sea is perfectly smooth, you don’t have to walk ankle-deep for a long time and you don’t have to go down from the pier to the depths. The beach is located in a kind of lagoon. To the right is a wilder beach where you can snorkel among the fish and corals. It is very interesting and most importantly free. Lots of sun loungers and wicker umbrellas. Employees constantly walk on the beach and clean cups, cigarette butts and other garbage.
ANIMATION: Here is the only negative. On the beach, water workouts and volleyball are also cool. But in the evening boredom. In one room they arrange a kind of concert, where everyone sits like spectators and looks at the belly dance, dance with umbrellas, dance with skirts... etc... In short, in the evening it is better to go shopping.
WEATHER: In November, it is already cool in the evening, you need to put on a blouse on top. It gets dark at 17:00, and from 18:00 you can not go into the sea and pools (in all of Egypt). The weather during the day is excellent, 30 degrees, but it feels like 24. It's very cool, you don't die from the heat, you don't sweat, but you feel pleasantly on vacation. Also in November, the winds are already walking, so sometimes it’s quite cold to climb out of the sea.
The hotel is partnered with the hotel across the street so you can also go in there and swim in the pool and ride the water slides. The hotel itself is located on a good cultivated tourist street with flower beds, lanterns, cafes and shops.
WARNING ADVICE: Do not buy excursions from your hotel guides. They triple the price. Search the Internet for local travel agencies and bargain with them. Do not settle for a free shopping trip from the hotel, you will be taken to where everything is three times more expensive. Just leave the hotel and go to the nearest shops, everything is cheap there.
